 IntroductionYong Zhang Chapter 1 in Large Chinese State-Owned Enterprises, 2008, pp 1-28 from Palgrave Macmillan Abstract: Abstract One of the most significant economic developments of the twentieth century is the transformation of China’s economy and its extraordinary growth. This has considerably raised the standard of living of the Chinese people which comprises over one fifth of the world’s population. There is little doubt that China is an emerging economic superpower. China’s reform agenda over the past two and half decades has been ambitious and has embraced economic, managerial and social changes. All three have implications for the focus of this book, namely enterprise reform and in particular the impact of corporatization on strategic development. Within this context, this book seeks to contribute to the advancement of knowledge in the fields of corporatization and strategic development of large Chinese state-owned enterprises (SOEs) from a process and network perspective. Specifically, it will explore the process of China’s corporatization reform and investigate whether this has altered the process of strategy formulation and implementation of large Chinese SOEs.
